Well guys I’m building a community site for people to use that like the Ragnarok Online game. I have been working with some people who already have a server up and we found a way to run a legal server for free. Now that we have we have also found a host that will host the game server. So for you Ragnarok Online fans this is going to be huge.

How ever if you look at the following linkhttp://ricero.game-server.cc/home.php you’ll see that this is the Athena server Control Panel which doubles as a small site for that’s community. Notice the top right corner? It displays the servers status’ showing that the account server is up the character serve is up and the map server is up. It also displays the amount of player currently on the server.

Well my site located herehttp://epix-ro.fmgaming.net has a server status monitor up as well; actually it’s just a spoof. How ever that Athena CP reads information from the game server database to tell the servers statuses and amount of currently active players. Now my site uses the XOOPS CMS. The site has its own database while the games main server and the test server each have there own database. I need to find away to get my site to display the server status and player allotment. How ever my knowledge a bout PHP and databases are limited. I guess what I’m asking for is help; the help would have to know there way a round XOOPS and be able to help configure the server monitor. Now being that the information is in a XOOPS block and that the monitor it self would contain a bout 3 file per server its monitoring I’m not sure if a module would be needed to be made rather then a simple block.
